I want to simulate a warehouse where an agv drops arrivals at a storage position. In my network however, the agv does not transport but arrivals automatically enter the storage position. Where is the error/ how can this be fixed?
AGV warehouse model - AGV does not transport
FlexSim 22.2.4
Each of your control points must be connected to your rack and you need to address each control point as a via point of travel to your destination. Then a vehicle can travel to a slot control point and do an offset unload task.
I would build it with an A*Star grid instead.
Thank you for your answer. Do you mean each control point within my rack should be connected with the rack or the ones outside?
I am trying to do it with an AGV network since prescribed process flows are available and some logic should be custom.

An AGV control point connects an object to an AGV Path system. From this control point a traveler can perform an offset travel to get to a location by coordinates. If Control Points are destinations of travel, then each control point must be connected to an involved object. A slot is not an object. It cannot be connected to a control point. Only a rack as an object can be connected. If you want to get most nearest to a slot, then you have to let travel a taskexecuter to a control point nearest to this slot. Otherwise any connected control point to a rack is good for an unload task as any other control point. The routing system does not evaluate which control point is nearest to a slot for unloading. The routing system looks for a control point that is nearest to current location of a traveler and is connected to the rack object. When a traveler arrives at such a control point an unloaded item transfers directly into its designated slot.
